التصميم الامثل للمضخات الغاطسة الكهربائية في الابار النفطية بإستخدام برنامج Prosper

Artificial Lift is a very important tool to increase the oil production rate or lift the oil column in the wellbore up to the surface. Artificial lift is the main in case of bottom hole pressure is not enough to produce oil from the reservoir to the surface. Therefore, a comprehensive study is carried to select the appropriate type of artificial lift according to the reservoir and wellbore conditions like water production, sand production, solution gas-oil ratio, and surface area available at the surface. Also, the maintenance cost and volume of produced oil have an vital part in the selection of the type of artificial lift tool. Artificial lift tools have several types for instance Sucker Rod Pump, Gas Lift, Hydraulic Pump, Progressive Cavity Pump, Jet Pump, and Electrical Submersible Pump. All these types require specific conditions for subsurface and surface parameters to apply in oil wells. This paper will study the Electrical Submersible Pump “ESP” which is considered one of the most familiar types of artificial lifts in the whole world. Electrical Submersible Pump “ESP” is the most used for massive oil volumes. In contrast, ESP has high maintenance and workover cost. Finally, this paper will discuss a case study for the Electrical Submersible pump “ESP” design in an oil well. This case study includes the entire well and reservoir properties including fluid properties to be applied using Prosper software. The results of the design model will influence in the oil productivity and future performance of oil well. Keywords: ESP, Prosper programing, reservoir, IPR.
